View Full Version : Secret Santa
Not too sure if this is the right place or not?
Would there be any interest in a forum secret santa? Might have left it a little late now.
I've done it on other forums and its a nice little thing.
If there is any interest I'll add the rules!

I'd be up for it. I did it on Reddit a couple of years back, so it was a worldwide scale - epic.
Will it involve me dressing up?
If not then why not? :0)

Looks like just the 3 of us at the moment...

With all the antics here, I think we'd make it amusing :)
If you'd like to take part, simply read the guidelines then send the below details to kev@townsend-music.com
Forum Name:
Name:
Full Postal Address:
Notes *:
* That's for anyone who wants their sender to mark the package with any specifics; 'please leave with the fool next door', 'stick it in the shed' etc., so they don't have to collect it from their local Post Office or fish it out of a wet bin.
The guidelines are as follows:
1. If you wish to participate then email your info across by the end of Sunday, 29th November
2. Only provide your real name if that's the name you wish the gift to be addressed to. If you don't provide your real name, your forum name will be given to your sender.
3. The recommended spend is a tenner, but if you're feeling a bit flush then you may spend more if you wish
4. You don't have to buy a present, you can make it!
5. You'll be emailed the name/forum name of your recipient plus their full address by Saturday, 5th December
6. It's up to you when you send the gift, but if you plan on sending it nearer to Christmas week, then please take into consideration the Royal Mail Christmas postage dates shown below:
UK Services UK Inland Services Saturday 19 December 2nd Class and Royal Mail Signed ForŽ Monday 21 December 1st Class and Royal Mail Signed ForŽ Wednesday 23 December Royal Mail Special Delivery GuaranteedŽ
Overseas poster, don't let that put you off if you're abroad. I'll try to either pair you up with someone in the same country or will provide details to the sender as early as possible.
7. If you don't want to incur the extra cost of having to send overseas, then please say so when you send your details over
Please, get proof of postage. Far too often I've spent my time on other forums dicking about chasing people up who claim to have sent something but can't back it up. If you've signed up for this then please stick to the game rules.
Please note, I just arrange this for the fun it brings. I'm not responsible for lost or damaged parcels so won't be refunding missing or damaged deliveries.
Ensure you don't post that you want to take part in here and do nothing afterwards. I won't be chasing people up if they do that. You only get entered if you provide your details via email (or PM me, if you prefer).
Last thing; I will try to reply to all e-mails to confirm receipt, however between a number of personal (We've just had our first little Iddon!) and work commitments (loads of releases) I'm short on spare time!
****Admin - can we add this to the first post and make sticky for xmas?

Think I guessed who I was paired with! But it'd be good to know what we got and who sent it!
I got a cracking airfix spitfire kit, still in the paint shop at the moment!
